Is the order book being gamed? There are four buyers and sellers who all agree on price - yet no one seems to want to get a deal done? What gives? Why are these orders being published but not being executed? Is it all just a show? Is this merely some version of price fixing?
Please remember that everything here is done
manually. People have to contact each other via PM and since we are scattered all over the globe closing a deal can easily take a day or two.
That's why there are overlapping orders. Also, some people unfortunately forget to let me know about obsolote orders.
What I do is sending out a message once a week reminding people to update / edit / remove their orders – I don't know a better way around this at the moment.
And no, it's not just a show, I escrowed over 50 Mastercoin trades over the last couple of weeks.
The distributed exchange will make things much better, I'm really looking forward to this.
